Good but would consider this a starter kit, def need add ons. Def not mad at it tho. Competes with Olaplex, neck and neck. Hard to tell who wins. 

 

they have so many sprays and moisturizers and such, lots to choose from. rn i'm trying

need very little, never creates crunchy hair. just allows hold but you can brush through it silky smooth shiny etc. holds forever somehow

i got more hair stuff, gonna try it. from whole foods. just took a hard left and went straight to the organic hair care, don't know why lol 

 

here's a picture of corgi's which i love (thank you pottery barn) (i love corgi's)

also got an essential oil diffuser??? and a bunch of skin care, i mean, whole foods is kind of going off right now. i would love to see them become like the "organic" sephora/ulta and just expand their store to more things than just food for sure because the stuff they select is just premium quality, and i really appreciate that as someone who is tired of sorting through heaps of bull shit products that suck 

 

like just, provide me the good selections only. the cream of the crop. i feel like there's a market for it too so, why not. lead the way, whole foods. lol 

 

oh and i also bought a dresser from pottery barn! which sounds so suburban mom of me, but, just trust me, this is good. this one goes off. i dunno, it kinda inspires me to build the rest of the atmosphere around it.

 I can't imagine you are size 6 (they run big) but if you are,

would you be interested in buying my UGG Australia boots, (Sundance #5325) these were from when they first came out (you wouldn't believe when) and are in excellent condition. I don't believe they make these any longer.

The soles are in perfect condition. And the "fur" can be rolled up or down

I once bought some tall Wellington boots (speaking of gardening boots) ut I regret it (I think they are in my mother's closet)

update i regret buying the gardening boots, they're really adorable for decor purposes but like, they're so heavy they made my shins sore after wearing them for like 15 minutes. 

 

i also bought the wrong size because the size 7's in the hunters are too tiny, very difficult to get in and out of. but i think the size 8 is just too big and thats why my shins were sore from walking around in literal clown shoes 

 

i have the return receipt. tempted to use them for display in my "shop" ..... but..... i dunno 

 

with it being spring coming and everything i kind of wanted to like actually garden and really embrace the season. 

 

i have a lot of other stuff going on but this is what i wanted the focus of todays post to be about.

i have a vision of, tall wheat grass, apple trees, and lavender plants budding in the soft fairy grass & cold wet dirt of scottland against the backdrop of a sunrise 

 

cool water trickling nearby, in a gorgeous reflective dark black river. 

 

i love the bunnies and swans, and the bees, the hummingbirds, and butterflies. the warm sunsrays cast on the grey-white cobblestone...and dark black slate, crisp air that smells like gardenia's and magnolia's blooming. 

 

i actually made a bucket of flowers, a bushel, a bouquet, i don't know. one spring, i still have it. not sure what to do with it now. the plants look very realistic but, are fake. 

 

but, this time i wanted to do real plants

Yep I have a pair of Hunter boots (now in my mother’s closet) they may fit you. I think I had same issue with size. Let me look this weekend. Do you want the 7’s after all? What size do you need

okay well i can't find the boots anywhere on the internet but i returned the boots. they were a size 8, too heavy, made feet sore. don't buy a size up, i thought that was a good idea cuz i don't like my foot being squeezed but too big is actually worse lol

 

long story short in gardening/rain boots i guess i'm going to maybe be a 7.5??? is the sizing on hunter rain boots like just wildly difficult to get right or, is it just me. 

 

apparently i'm really picky shoe person i'm realizing as i tried on every shoe in the store that was at least remotely interesting to me a the time and only found two pairs half decent 

 

okay heres info on how to do boots? as a floridian i've pretty much mainly worn sandles my entire life so, when it comes to knowing what a good sandle is, i have that down pat. but.... mmmm boots. boots are a different animal entirely. 

 

how to boot. lol https://thediaryofadebutante.com/hunter-boot-sizing-cleaning-info/ 

 

 

but keep in mind... i'm not thninking about6 snow or cold weather. just rain and mud and, gardening.

free people is lit 

 

i'm so lucky they built a store here in florida, they used to have a huge store in new orleans and i loved it. the street access urban outfitters in san fransisco is peak. 

 

basically street access stores are always amazing esp in like specifically designated high end real estate shopping districts of major cities 

 

so yeah i just feel lucky to get a little slice of that in my quaint town, a brand new gorgeous sparkling, free people store 

 

all i had before was a small section in like, i think nordstorm in a mall that is an hour away 

 

so yeah... the vibes in there are just A1 tho i will say try *everything* on because it's like the "make and fit" of things can be really inconsistent 

 

 

but the store does a good job of helping me get creative with fashion and inspired to create and express my current mood and style for the season 

 

i had so much fun, majority of their stuff is fantastic quality, without being too hot lol 

 

like i found these 200-400 sweaters that are decent quality, i mean its not chanel or something but, being 'thick and heavy' doesn't mean it's worth the price tag or necessarily 'high quality' if that maikes sense. a lot of high quality clothes are just too hot to ever wear here. 

 

anyway, i will say check everything for transparency. try it all on. you know. don't buy dumb stuff. 

 

i'm liking the quality, the true test of quality in a brand is how does it wear- how does it last. so i try to keep that in mind when i purchase. how will this look after it's been washed and dried 80x
